It took 7 years. 7 years of extreme financial stress. 7 years of lingering anxiety. Years of constantly asking 'do we really need this now? Is it ok to buy it later?'. Hopefully the streak ends now.
Finally, I am closing my student loan today. Took the decision to pursue my master's, with dreams of studying abroad, with reluctance to leave my startup, and with some 8000 rupees in my bank account.

Banks rejected education loan, because my father's salary was way too low for them to accept as a guarantee.

Had a long conversation with a friend who is practising in one of the large government hospitals in Chennai. He shared some vital information that I would like to share here. (1/40) I am not a doctor and I am only sharing what he shared with me as an advice. In case any of these information are not right or ambiguous, do let me know, I will correct it. (2/40)

Please note: Though our TL is filled with tweets from Delhi and UP requesting for beds and oxygen, the situation in Chennai is not looking good either.
Have been calling multiple hospitals the last couple of days to source beds for people, and there are already nothing available. The new hospitals that are being set up don't take patients who are even moderately serious. If your SPO2 level goes below 90, or if you are over 65, the new/make-shift hospitals won't have beds or expertise to support those patients.

Ready for a Weekend long-read about Humming bird effect? Warning - This is really a very long thread that you might actually call it a yarn. (1/35) A thread about how a few historical happenings trigger a chain of events that beautifully evolves over time to create a whole new world altogether. Yawn! Ok let me rephrase that. (2/35)

So much of gloominess due to the fall in GDP. But actually there is so much of a bright side to it that we are failing to see. 1. If it rains at the top, we do rain water harvesting very efficiently now.
